Synchronization using multiple devices

Dear Angeman,

I use iCompta version 6 on 4 devices all with synchronization via Dropbox.
In Mac Book Pro I have a local file named "MacBookPro_iCompta_2017", on the Mac Mini I have a local file named "MacMini_iCompta_2017".

In the iPad Pro and iPhone, and I always click on the "Save" option when I make some changes / updates.

Some questions:
- Is it necessary to have local files with different names?
- Does synchronization via Dropbox work better than iCloud?
- That way can I manage my personal finances with the security of having the same version of my data on all my devices?

Thanks in advance for your help.

PS: Are you planning any new version for iCompta? If so, I would like to participate in beta testing if possible.

Nope they can and should have the same name indeed to make more sense.

Yes it usually does.

No new major version is planned yet.
